Hello, my name is Santa Jon, and I am a real bearded Santa. I previously worked as Santa at the Mall of America for 7 years. I have been a professional Santa for 11 years. I truly have a love for children, and I work well with children who have special needs. I have amazing stories about the North Pole and my adventures over the years. Each story has a prop that helps make the story more magical. I am available for home visits, corporate and customer appreciation parties, community and summer appearances, and photographer mini sessions. New this year, "Story Time with Santa Show.” The show will be a 30-minute performance with Santa Jon telling North Pole stories and my amazing adventures.
Santa Jon did a wonderful job at our event. He is so kind and sweet to children, and makes both adults and children at ease. I will absolutely be hiring him next year for our event.
Santa came to visit our school concert and did an amazing job! We hope to have him back next year. Thanks for helping our families and children make lasting memories!
Santa Jon was wonderful. All the children and parents loved him. We really enjoyed his story. He spent time with each child. Talking to them and letting parents take pictures. He also gave each child a candy cane and bracelet! I recomend him highly!
Santa Jon was a great addition to our holiday event. He arrived early and was so professional and kind and thoughtful, not to mention he looked like a perfect Santa. He was great at communication leading up to the event as well. We would love to hire him again for another event and would encourage all looking for an awesome Santa to reach out to him, you won't regret it.
Santa Jon was amazing! We invited him to appear after lunch. Our group consists of elderly Japanese ladies and he was just what I'd hoped for! Kind and personal... Doesn't matter the age - everyone's eyes lit up when Santa Jon made his entry!! I'd book him again without hesitation. Such a professional.
Best Santa we have ever hired loved him. Everybody loved him.
Jon was east to work with and was flexible with our event nonprofit celebration event. He was open to understanding what we were trying to achieve and how he would fit in.
First and foremost, Jon is the ideal picture of a traditional Santa; he is kind, inviting, and his homemade costume is beautiful.
We could not have been more pleased to work with Jon and our guests loved him!
My team at work hosts a huge client appreciation party each December. Finding the perfect Santa has been a challenge every year, until this one. We - and most importantly, all of our clients - loved Santa Jon! So many people commented that he was the best Santa we've had. He was jolly, professional, friendly, and very authentic looking. :) Communication was great, he showed up on time, AND he arranged to subcontract a photographer to accompany him, which was a huge help to us. We also loved the backdrop he provided. The pictures turned out amazing! Everything was just perfect. We would definitely love to hire Santa Jon again next year. Thank you!
